Alexei Navalny starts hunger strike over lack of medical care
Jailed Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny declared a hunger strike on Wednesday in an attempt to force the prison holding him outside Moscow to provide him with proper medical care for what he said was acute pain in his back and legs. Navalny's fate is in focus after he said last week that being woken up by a guard every hour during the night amounted to torture.
